My website was designed for the health and fitness needs of those who prefer to have a personal trainer professional available for home training.

Technology will never be able to totally replace the expertise of a superb personal trainer. Why? Because only a trainer can provide expert guidance on proper posture when performing exercises. The quality of your movements and the coaching you receive from a good trainer is paramount--not metrics assessed by technological gadgetry.

Amidst the ever-evolving trends in the health and fitness industry, one trend stands out for its potential extremes: the integration of technology into measuring individual performance and overall fitness.

Floor time is conducive to relaxing and opening the body and mind.

For some, just a few minutes can quiet the mind.

Some good tips to adjust to the impending time change (spring forward): go to bed 15 minutes earlier days before the time change and continue to prioritize sleep afterward; get more sunlight outdoors to regulate hormone levels; avoid drinking coffee in the afternoons; and eat foods with more protein and fiber.

Here’s how to feel well rested when the clocks spring forward on Sunday.

Your post-workout recovery foods containing a good mix of lean protein and healthy carbs: eggs; salmon; cottage cheese; sweet potatoes; bananas; spinach; berries; turmeric; chocolate milk; and of course protein shake.

You just killed a mega workout. You're pumped but you're also tired and need food ASAP. What do your reach for? Satisfy your hunger and boost post-workout recovery with these top foods.

Partial squats may be useful for powerlifters or weightlifters but not bodybuilders. To build and strengthen quads, they must be lengthened adequately (stretched muscle fibers) for appreciable growth to occur. That means squat at least close to parallel to the floor if not parallel. Feet should be turned out slightly so the knees can bend outward, allowing the hips to go into further extension at the bottom. You know you've gone deep enough when you feel the stretch in your quads and possibly more residual thigh soreness later. Remember, hypertrophy cannot occur adequately without enough muscle fibers being stretched.

The more weight you can squat to the correct depth, the stronger you are. It really is that simple. But when is a “squat” not a squat? When it is not below parallel – at the proper depth and therefore the proper range of motion to satisfy the purpose of the exercise. Partial squats are not squ...

It's not about the actual poundage of your lifts that matters. Rather, it's about continual progression in poundage in your lifts. As long as good technique is consistently applied, increasing your loads for all of the big lifts including squats, deadlifts, bench presses, overhead presses, and rows is all that really matters. When the loads increase, strength increases. Period. End of story.

“What should I be squatting?” – or deadlifting, or pressing, or benching is a very common concern among novice lifters. To an extent it's a valid concern, because everybody wants to know how they're doing, and the weight on the bar is the only valid way to judge strength training progress.

The best lower body exercises: squats; deadlifts; hip thrusts; and step-ups.

When it comes to building leg muscle, some exercises are better than others. Here are the most effective leg workouts, backed by scientific evidence!

Lordotic curve is required at the beginning of the deadlift as well as at the bottom of the squat in order to strengthen and protect your lower back effectively. Bottom line: learn to properly perform an anterior pelvic tilt and maintain it while performing any deadlift and squat movement. Your lower back will thank you.

This is a rather fundamental issue for many inexperienced trainees, especially those people who are not gifted athletes with the natural ability to use their bodies optimally. Let's discuss the differences between the two, the reasons why they are important, and how to best clarify the procedures fo...

When it comes to exercise, always listen to your body--it never lies.

Experts say it’s crucial to listen to your body to avoid injury. But what does that really mean, and how can you put it into practice?

If you want to gain muscle with less fat gain, clean bulking is the way to go. "Clean" means eating whole, natural foods rather than processed foods to get extra calories in your body. Recommended high calorie, clean foods include: nut butters; avocados; trail mix; whole-grain cereals; smoothies; and grain salads.

Bulking is a phase of intense strength training to build muscle. To put on muscle mass, you need high-quality calories. Here are some of the best high-calorie snacks for bulking and adding serious muscle to your frame.

It's a new year and you want to be more fit and healthy but inevitably have excuses to not want to exercise. What are some tips to get you going? Read this:

We all have reasons we can’t work out as much as we want. You can get over them — just don’t call them excuses.

01/24/2024

To gain muscle mass and get stronger, it's essential adequate protein is ingested. Tracking protein and carbs should be the priority for your nutrition. Fat intake need not be tracked as this will simply be the balance of remaining caloric intake.

Understand the role of diet in gaining muscle and getting stronger, including protein intake, total calories, and the importance of carbs.
